Flannel_Fox Posted 21 July 2022 Posted 21 July 2022 Watching that second half yesterday it was obvious we need more of a goal threat from the right hand side. Was impressed by this lad in the England u21s so would be all for getting him in. 2
volpeazzurro Posted 21 July 2022 Posted 21 July 2022 (edited) There have been a well documented number of similar players lauded on here as the next best thing pre-season in the last few years. Most, when they've made it to the Premiership have been gash and we dodged a bullet. I have to be honest, when he played the one game against us I couldn't say I saw anything very special and certainly not for the price they appear to want. Sangare on the other hand looked quite impressive at times. Edited 21 July 2022 by volpeazzurro 2
Babylon Posted 21 July 2022 Posted 21 July 2022 16 hours ago, An Sionnach said: I have got nothing against the lad but with his huge transfer fee and massive contract he has got to deliver pretty quickly . Lookman was better last season in fact. My point is really if you are paying £30 million or so for somebody like Madueke you need to be pretty sure you are getting your money's worth. It's very difficult, £60m is the new £30m in terms of basically being able to buy talent proven in a top league. £30m players are going to carry more risks with them than they used to. 1

Have you not noticed a reduction in transfer fees this summer compared to recent years silliness? I feel its dropping off a touch, there's been some real bargains, even coming to the PL. 3

An Sionnach Posted 21 July 2022 Posted 21 July 2022 19 hours ago, desertfox2 said: Not convinced by this at all, or our scouting anymore. 30m is paying for the player he may become, he's worth half that at most now. He's 20, gets injured a lot and if we splash out that much on him it wont take long before people turn on him and call him a flop. He may well become a proper player but realistically it's going to be a few years yet before he is pushing for a starting role in a team challenging for Europe where we hope to be. We don't have 30m and 2-4 years to invest in a player unless we are going to start moving down the table. We have some big players leaving soon and if this is the type of place we are looking at sticking our money then we need to get rid of Rodgers now or whoever is making these decisions because our transfer business since Puel left has been near the bottom of the table worthy. Puel had a great eye for players or his recruitment team did but was a terrible coach. Rodgers is a great coach but shouldn't be anywhere near a transfer. Hopefully there is no truth in this, at least not at anywhere near this price. For 15m he would be worth a punt maybe. I think you are about right here. This is the PL and a totally different order of things. A three year contract at most and no more than 40 grand a week. If he steps up , we can improve that. We all know we have to get the finances under control. 1
LFox99 Posted 29 July 2022 Posted 29 July 2022 Out for the forseeable future with a heavy ankle injury sustained in training. "PSV attacker Noni Madueke has to fear that he will not be able to be on the field at matches during the start of the season and probably for a lot longer. Sources around the player report that he sustained an injury during PSV's training session and that it is also quite serious. Further details are still missing and the suspicion is that Johan Bakayoko or Xavi Simons will have to replace him during the battle for the Johan Cruijff Schaal on Saturday. According to multiple sources, it is not a muscle problem, something that Madueke (20) suffered from a handful of times last season. What is going on and how serious it is, PSV will announce later. The first sounds speak of an ankle injury. An examination on Friday and perhaps Saturday should make it clear what exactly is going on." 2

tsintskaro Posted 29 July 2022 Posted 29 July 2022 40 mil for this guy would have been total disaster anyway so this "mess" does something good as well, we dont get overpriced player who is destined to be a flop

Can’t see us getting involved anytime with Noni - we must consider fitness and injury issues if we are hitting financial headwinds
Pliskin Posted 29 July 2022 Posted 29 July 2022 Medical team will be running to Rudkin cocks in hand at this news. 1 1
Verumex Posted 29 July 2022 Posted 29 July 2022 Sounds like he'd get on well with the players in the medical room!

Muscle injuries kept him out for a lot of games previously, and now whatever this is, it does not sound great. He has to believe that he can battle through and get back to his best because when life keeps knocking you down, it is how you get up that defines you.

Realist Guy In The Room Posted 29 July 2022 Posted 29 July 2022 He’d fit in here. COZ HE’S INJURED 🤕 🤪🤪🤪 Eh lads?? 2
Lambert09 Posted 30 July 2022 Posted 30 July 2022 do we know any more right wingers? 🙃 Genuinely up shit creak if he was out number 1 target. We will probably pay twice as much for gakpo now and play him on the wrong side.
